Pair of two-tone lepidolite mica slices, from Brazil
PUMI2509
These translucent butterfly wings are actually 2 successive layers of a Brazilian mineral exploited for its lithium content (so car batteries among others). Lépidolite is a type of Mica, therefore composed of thin layers that separate quite easily and are even flexible when they are quite thin. Lépidolite can be yellow, transparent, greenish... But in the province of Minas Gerais you can find large bi-colored crystals with this geometric distribution. A precious pair of wings that could be used to recharge your Tesla one day?
